Santo Pecoraro

With regards to discographers, it’s the real men who are able to tell the difference between Santo Pecora and Santo Pecoraro, specifically since the true name from the former artist is, just like the latter, actually Santo Pecoraro. There is absolutely no misunderstandings about their identities if the noises of their devices are compared, nevertheless. The slightly old participant who edited his surname from Pecoraro to Pecora was a trombonist and bandleader whose flexibility got him completely out to the documenting studio picture in Hollywood. Pecoraro was his nephew, a drummer, and most of four years youthful. In the ultimate years of Uncle Pecora’s profession, he mostly kept forth in New Orleans at night clubs like the Dream Room as well as the Famous Door: locales where in fact the drummer in the music group was perfectly apt to be nephew Pecoraro. This pairing turns up on some recordings, the popularity of either participant hardly ever reached the percentage where anyone will be lured to amend yet another verse towards the George Gershwin traditional, such as “You state Pecora and I state Pecoraro.” The drummer also gigged with bandleaders Johnny Wiggs and Pete Fountain.
